High-contrast display serif with ligatures
Sherlock
Sherlock is a high-contrast display serif in cream over a dark landscape painting: very fine hairlines, sharp serifs, tall caps with a narrow waist and a set of discretionary ligatures that fuse adjacent letters, laid out in three lines with small tracked labels in the corners.
Swashed modern couture serif with hairline stress and curling terminals
Stanza
Stanza is a modern serif in which the strokes carry extreme contrast, the terminals curl and the crossbars of the A and the T extend into swashes, so a short word reads as a fashion masthead rather than a title.
Ideas for this font
Bold typewriter serif with rounded slabs
The Bold Typewriter

Ideas for this font
High-contrast didone capitals with wide fit

Ideas for this font
Fine capitals with connected crossbars and a large lower S loop
Asthera
Asthera shows pale high-contrast capitals in which the stems stay slender, a large S curve drops below the baseline and fine crossbars run across the central T, H and E area so several letters link into one band.
Ideas for this font
Rounded bohemian serif with curled lower extensions and soft flared ends
Boho Celestia
Boho Celestia is a warm rounded serif in which the stems flare at their ends, the bowls stay heavy and the B curls inward below its stem while the final a sends a long low tail, so a word reads as hand-drawn bohemian lettering.
Ideas for this font
Very tall condensed fashion serif with hairline serifs and a tight fit
Cervelique
Cervelique is a tall condensed serif in which the stems stretch upward, the serifs thin to hairlines and the letters sit almost shoulder to shoulder, so a word reads as a magazine masthead rather than as text.
Ideas for this font
Tall narrow mixed case with deep curled descenders and hairline serifs
Christmas Morning Wishes
Christmas Morning Wishes is a tall narrow serif in which the letters run high and thin, the serifs are hairlines and the descenders curl into deep open loops that sit below the line.
Ideas for this font
Thin Gothic-influenced lettering with pointed oval counters
Demolish
Demolish shows clean white mixed case over a dark red-black ground, where the D stands tall and softly rectangular, the e and o enclose pointed leaf-like counters and fine stems widen into small flared tips with subtle waist notches.
Tall high-contrast serif letters with tapered strokes and rounded counters
Dravion
Dravion sets a large cream word against a dark photograph, where narrow hairlines meet thick upright strokes, the capital D stands tall and bowed, the a keeps a rounded bowl and the r ends in a soft curved terminal.
Upright contrasting capitals framed by looping endpoint letters
Endless Love
Endless Love is a contrasting upright capital face in which the first and last letters carry long loops that leave the cap line above and below, so a two-line title reads as a framed romantic lockup.
Ideas for this font
Soft retro capitals with flared rounded ends and a heavy rounded body
Genius Person
Genius Person is a soft retro capital alphabet whose stems flare slightly at the ends, whose corners are fully rounded, and whose weight is heavy enough to read as a bubble serif rather than a text face.
Ideas for this font
Substantial serif with curled left entries and long ball-ended low swashes
Harmony Essence
Harmony Essence is a substantial modern serif in which the stems carry weight, the bowls stay broad, the left entries curl and long ball-ended swashes travel beneath the word, so a title reads as a warm editorial masthead.
Ideas for this font
Open serif with softly irregular edges and flaring diagonals
Kernova
Kernova Serif is a modern serif in which the bowls stay open, the contrast sits at a middle range and the edges of the stems and feet carry a soft irregularity, so a line reads as a quietly weathered classic rather than a crisp didone.
Ideas for this font
Heavy contrasting capitals with a low K sweep and joined-looking CE
Kicela
Kicela shows dark capitals with thick upright stems, fine joins and sharp flared ends, where the K leg sweeps beneath the I and a thin curved stroke runs from the C area into the E crossbar.
Ideas for this font
Elegant serif with drawn ligatures and a wide flowing fit
Kovela
Kovela is an elegant serif in which the ligatures tie neighbouring letters into one flowing shape, the contrast stays high and the fit runs wide, so a short name reads as a designed wordmark rather than as a typeset line.
Ideas for this font
Contrasting capitals with a curled LO and long N tail
Lovine
Lovine is a high-contrast capital face in which a thin loop winds through the L and O, the N diagonal drops below the final E and a diamond-like mark rises over the middle, so a name reads as linked monogram lettering.
